Clackamas County Sheriff's deputies on Tuesday subdued a reportedly armed and suicidal man and transported him a hospital for a mental evaluation.

Authorities said they received several reports around 5 p.m. of a conflict at a home near Southeast 78th Avenue and Southeast Overland Street in unincorporated Clackamas County. A man was suicidal, armed with a handgun and intoxicated, callers said, and his family members were trying to reason with him.

A records check showed the man, 51-year-old Scott Doggett of Milwaukie, had an outstanding arrest warrant for a charge of resisting arrest, with caution he might also be suicidal, police said.

One of the callers, police said, was believed to be Doggett himself, reporting that there was a man down in the street in a possible attempt to force a confrontation with police. Another caller reported Doggett had discharged a firearm near the home.

Authorities said they found Doggett on foot, heading toward 82nd Avenue. Doggett refused to comply with deputies' commands and physically resisted being taken into custody, police said. After a short struggle, Doggett was handcuffed and subdued.

Doggett was transported to a hospital for a mental health evaluation, police said. Once he is deemed stable, Doggett will be arrested on his warrant, and charges of unlawful use of a weapon, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest will be referred to the Clackamas County District Attorney for review.

Police urge the public to call the Clackamas County Crisis Line, 503-655-8585, if you are aware of someone experiencing a mental health crisis.
